Love's Emancipation by Alison McKenzieFrom the illusion
That we are separate
Eventually comes
This amazing understanding
That separation
Is never truly possible.
Today,
I gratefully
Share Love’s emancipation
From the foundation
Of my being
While I allow myself
To be fully immersed
In Love’s contribution
From every direction.

Posted by George Hoerner on 12/18/11 at 02:24 PM Nice write Alison, it comes right from the heart. Unfortunately I believe that hate comes from the same place. |
Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 12/18/11 at 05:06 PM Those last two lines are delightfully inclusive. |
Posted by Mo Couts on 12/18/11 at 10:17 PM I have to agree with George...I think that hate comes from the same place, but with a heart like yours, it'll never live within you. Beautifully done, Ali. |

Posted by Ken Harnisch on 12/19/11 at 11:05 AM We so seldom as poets look at "love's contribution" to our well- being. You did Alison and so, so splendidly. |
